Agents can craft a custom New Zealand FAM with Explore PLUS

Canadian travel agents can now plan and book their own independent New Zealand FAMs with the Tourism New Zealand's new Explore PLUS Program.

The program supplies agents with more than 500 air, land, accommodation and attraction discounts and resources to design a personally curated New Zealand itinerary. An exclusive program for IATA and CLIA agents in the U.S. and Canada, the goal is to better equip agents with knowledge and first-hand experiences to help grow their New Zealand sales.

To be eligible for the PLUS Program, agents must hold Bronze certification.

Special discounted fares participating agents can take advantage of include:

• Air New Zealand – Fares from San Francisco, Los Angeles, Houston and Vancouver starting at $200. The first 100 agents to book receive an additional $200 off the discounted price.
• American Airlines – 50 per cent off return fares from Los Angeles.
• Air Tahiti Nui – $550 return fare from Los Angeles.
• Fiji Airways – Fly from either Los Angeles or San Francisco for $599 or from Honolulu for $559. The first 25 agents to book receive an additional $200 off the discounted fare.
